Abu Dawud

Benefits and Issues:
All the Prophetic hadiths are part of revelation from Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.
The statement of Allah, the Exalted, is: (And he does not speak from [his own] desire. It is not but a revelation revealed) (: an-Najm 3–4). The Prophet ﷺ does not speak from his own desire; rather, all of it is revelation. Therefore, in some statements, the addition of phrases such as “Allah has revealed to me” is due to the importance and emphasis of the subject matter, and such hadiths are called Hadith Qudsi.

Benefits and Issues:

➊ The meaning of humility (tawadu‘, personal modesty) is: to avoid pride and arrogance, to respect others, and not to consider associating with or treating those of lower status with kindness as beneath one’s dignity.

➋ Muslims should adopt an attitude of humility towards one another.

➌ It is not permissible to be proud or arrogant over any blessing granted by Allah; rather, one should use that blessing for the benefit of creation with a sense of gratitude.

➍ Revelation was sent down to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam besides the Noble Qur’an as well, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would guide the Muslims in light of it. The sayings and actions (ahadith) of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam are obligatory to follow due to this revelation.
